What is a Sweet Spot?

A Sweet Spot is a safe, high-traffic location offered by one of our amazing partners where youth can set up their lemonade stand on Lemonade Day, Saturday, May 9th, 2026.

Youth have the opportunity to sign up for a Sweet Spot location from our partners list. It's a great option for young entrepreneurs who want a ready-made spot with built-in foot traffic.

To be eligible, youth must complete the Lemonade Day program. Returning participants also need to submit their business results from the previous year.

If your business or organization wants to become a Sweet Spot Partner and support young entrepreneurs in Houston, we would love to hear from you. Please contact juan@lemonadeday.org

Our My Lemonade Day app is now available!

The exciting digital experience walks kids through the steps necessary to start their lemonade stand.

Similar to the Lemonopolis digital program, kids will follow along through the 4 modules to learn how to set a goal, make a plan, work the plan and ultimately achieve success. Along the way, they will enjoy a fun, new, gamified experience complete with animated videos, activities, slideshows, and more.

Register today to use the My Lemonade Day app: Once you fill out the registration form through our site HERE, you will receive an email regarding your app details.

Have fun, and get ready to operate your own business!

You know what they say....
Location, Location, Location.....
It is key and a big factor that can influence how well your stand (or any business you set up) will do.

In our online lessons we go over "Site Location" and walk you through about picking a location. Need a refresher? Go back and read the lesson/watch the videos then complete a location comparison worksheet like this one to help you decide!
